Welcome To Troop 42 of New Fairfield!

Join Us!

We are a boy-led troop, offering a Scouting program with emphasis on
camping and outdoor skills. Our Scouts actively practice the leadership
skills they'll use as adults. All boys age 11 to 17, in grades 6
or higher, are welcome to join us or to visit a meeting. Please contact our Committee Chairman
or Scoutmaster
to arrange your visit to a meeting - we believe you'll become one of our newest members.

Aleksey will be working on his Eagle Scout
Project. The project is to build at least four bat houses. These bat
houses will be built and hung on buildings at the Great Hollow Nature
Preserve (GHNP). He needs at least 2 to 4 volunteers to oversee
younger boy scouts assembling and staining the bat houses. He also
needs one adult volunteer that is a carpenter to operate power tools as
boy scouts are not allowed to operate any power tools. He also needs a
volunteer that is an expert on administering first aid, if
needed. An adult may also needed to help with hanging the bat
houses as climbing a ladder is needed to attach the bat house to the
building.
The GHNP is located on 225 Route 37 in New Fairfield (when traveling
north on 37, GHNP is on the left side just after Haviland Hollow Road).
Please contact Aleksey and his family for more information.

Independence Day Family Breakfast. Tuesday July 4th 7-9 AM in the parking lot of the NF Senior Center. See flyer for details
